Talk:Fishing industry in Scotland

Angling in Scotland
It might be worth also having an article on angling in Scotland, which has been very popular for a long while, and high prestige, especially on the likes of the Spey. --MacRusgail 16:52, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

200 miles
"The Scottish Government has been given responsibility for all planning and nature conservation matters at sea up to 200 miles from the Scottish coast." - http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/scotland/north_east/7752324.stm

Worth a mention? --Mais oui! (talk) 14:38, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

Unsourced EEZ map
Building on the concerns of Epipelagic regarding the need for the unsourced map of the EEZ to be discussed on the talk page, can someone explain the provenance of this map? The UK Hydrographic Office has no record of the map. Inactive Wikipedia user named Kentynet notes that the source of the map as follows: 'I created this work entirely by myself.'

Given that encyclopaedic content must be verifiable, is this an adequate provenance?

Incredible omission
Wow ... an article about the Scottish fishing industry with no mention whatsoever of Peterhead ... I mean, it's only far and away the biggest fishing port not only in Scotland but all of Great Britain. Was there some reason? Regional rivalry? Daniel Case (talk) 17:11, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
 * OOps ... I had this backward. Never mind ... Daniel Case (talk) 03:18, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
